thank you so much, everyone! there were many days i wondered if she'd ever leave them alone long enough for them to come in and it makes me so happy to see her flapping her wings hard. she NEVER did that when she first came home and now she flaps every day.

well, loving her was easy, but without this board i'm not sure if she would've gotten proper food and care. i read and research alot and there's an amazing amount of incorrect information out there. at least i know i can always get advice from someone knowledgable here.
